Starting pitcher Pink Hawley pitched well enough to help the St. Louis Cardinals beat the New York Giants, 5-3. Hawley went 9 innings to notch the win. He scattered 10 hits, walked 4, and struck out 1. His record improves to 5-2. New York is 9-13 after the loss.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Dick Johnston? The St. Louis center fielder had a 2-run single in the top of the second inning to put the Cardinals on top, 2-0. For the game, Johnston had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"We did enough to win," said Johnston.
